A Visit To Santa's

Being a child yet, A facet which I keep hidden But, towards which tends my very soul I chose to fly to the land of Santa Claus Maybe, to help him with his chores of preparing gifts Maybe, to share a coffee and chat with him Or maybe, to share a smile and none else with him! So, I waited, till The night was deep and laden with shadows I then went to my garden And woke up Frosty the snowman, whom I've crafted With mine own hands! Ho, ho ho! said he, let's go for a ride to Santa's I hugged him tight and felt the world move all around me Soon, it stopped and when I opened my eyes I saw him, surrounded by those jolly elves All wanting to be ordered to get ready for Christmas To wrap up all the toys So as to make a special appearance at the Winter Fairy Land To help those children of the world Those children born, like me, Ignorant of their aims Ignorant of what awaits them Ignorant but surely exalted at the spirit of Christmas! Upon seeing me and Frosty Santa burst out in a jolly welcoming laugh Together, we sang and danced to the chimes of the Jingle Bells song How are you Santa, I asked Not too tired with the preparations I hope? Not really, said he, its usual routine stuff Oh and this year, my beard's grown longer It will need trimming, else, my feet will tangle in it And I will make a mess of myself while distributing gifts! We laughed some more, Chatted some more, Then, he gifted me with a sled, On which was placed a dozen sled bells And asked me to sit on it! It's a magical sled, said he It shall take you all over the world in just one night! Go on, go on and enjoy Christmas all over the world With Frosty! His words I followed and oh what a magical night it was We flew from Egypt to Japan! Pray, seen from the skies, the world is indeed a magical place! Ho, Ho, Ho! May we all be immersed in the spirit of Christmas!
